It [C]isn?t easy to say [Em]goodbye,
[Am] I try to understand the reason why[C]
my body[F]?s shaking, my heart is aching w[C]ithin me.[G]
Fro[C]m my window I watch you g[Em]o,
[Am] he?s waiting for you in the street below,[C]
his arm[F]s wide open, while mine are cold and[C] so empty.[G][C]
?Cause your wo[C]rld and my world, they?ve drifted apart,[F]
[Dm] in yours the sun is shining, in m[-]in[G]e it?s raining,[G7]
and I?m the only lonely one[C].
And your l[C]ife and my life, they?ve gone separate ways[F],
[Dm] in yours a new tomorrow, in mi[-]ne[G] just sorrow,[G7]
and I?m the only lonely one[C].
2. Through[C] the teardrops that cloud my eyes,[Em]
[Am] I see the image of a love gone[C] by,
a sil[F]houette that I won?t for[C]get for a long time.[G][-][G7]
The days [C]are longer now that you?re gon[Em]e,
[Am] without your loving arms to keep me warm,[C]
my futu[F]re lies under cloudy skies w[C]ith no sunshine.[G][C]
